If you have an EasyPIC board, just put the MCP9700A sensor in place of the DS1820 sensor this way :

Take care to plug the MCP9700A correctly : the flat side of the package must be on the D1820 curved side !

Then connect JP14 to RE2. That's all !

C source code example

Here is a mikroC source code example to display temperature in Celcius and Fahrenheit degrees on a LCD, using a MCP9700A temperature sensor.If you don't have mikroC compiler you can download it from : http://www.mikroe.com/en/compilers/mikroc/pic/

As you can see, I took advantages of the new mikroC LCD custom character generator to build symbols for °C and °F, as well as new "export code to HTML" feature of mikroC V7.0.0.3 to add color to the source code for better clarity :

It should work at first try, this is what you should get on your LCD screen :

Plug and play, as I said

This sensor can take place in applications where relative temperature changes are monitored, rather than absolute temperature : computer fan control, home appliance, motors and batteries temperature control for robotics...
